# God is able to make all grace overflow for you Grace is spoken of as if it were a physical object of which a person can have more than he can use. As a person gives financially to other believers, God also gives to the giver everything he needs. Alternate translation: "God is able to give you many things" or "God is able to give you very much" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]]) # grace This refers here to the physical things a Christian needs, not to the need for God to save him from his sins. # so that you may multiply every good deed "so that you may be able to do more and more good deeds"
